Synopsis of the Webinar

It has become a cliché to say that the global economy as a whole and almost all the major economies of the world, are at crossroads. Yet, the fact remains that when the Economies were barely recovering from the Pandemic by early 2022, the Russia Ukraine Conflict has accentuated the already existing uncertainties. Indeed the policy makers round the world, Govts and Central Bankers, have to navigate an extremely rough terrain in the coming months. This webinar will motivate professionals and policy makers to look in to nuances of the subject matter and draw a perspective.
